IMPROVED. SPOON-HLDER AND BELL.

lThe Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and 'makingpaz of the name l ticle'of table-service known as spoon-holders, and of that class which is of dish-form, into which the spoons, forks, or knives, as l:he case may be, are placed without any individual support, the object being to combine wit-l1 such a receiver or holder a gong-bell..

A represents the dish or receiver, here formed in two compartments B and G, as seen in fig. 2, and supported on legs D D.

From` the center a post, E, extends upwardrand terminates in a'haudle, F, of any convenient form, and on, the post I arrange a gong-bell, G, constructed `in the'usual manner.l I

The dish or receiver A is made of various forms,

according to the taste or requirements of the trade.

p The spoon-holder is an article required upon the ta- Y ble at all times, and in a convenient position for the use of the bell; hence will be seen the importance or value 'of the invent-ion by combining the bell with this article.

I claim, as my invention- In combination with a dish-shaped spoon-holder, I

provided with the support E', a gong-bell, arranged in the manner substantially as setforth. i SAMUEL SIMPSON.
